The assessment model will analyze how effectively you communicate. To communicate with pride, boldness, and positivity, be clear and confident in your language. Avoid stuttering, taking long pauses, or using crutch words. Identify your tics and avoid them. Pay close attention to your choice of words and what they might suggest beyond your intended meaning. You want to present yourself as a clear and professional communicator.
